Important! The signals are not buy and sell points. Signals should only be traded once the current price bar has closed, this is on each hour and 30 Mins past each hour for 30 Mins charts and every 15 Mins from the start of each hour for the 15 Mins chart

When a Bull Signal appears a trade should be entered on the next dip or on a breakout of the current price trend, when a Bear Signal appears a trade should be entered on the next rally or a breakout of the trend, this helps to filter out sideways whipsawing rates and false signals.  Bollinger Bands and the Slow Stochastic Oscillator are useful for entry and exit points.

Please note that during sideways and consolidating markets this signal should be used only during breakout situations, until then it is better  to use range trading strategy's.
